Protective effect of adonitol on lactic acid bacteria subjected to freeze-drying

G F de Valdéz et al. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1983 Jan.

Abstract

The protective effects of glycerol, adonitol, and four other related polyhydric alcohols on lactic acid bacteria subjected to freeze-drying were examined. The presence of adonitol in the suspending medium markedly protected the viabilities of the 12 stains tested. Dulcitol, mannitol, m-inositol, and sorbitol were found to provide little or no protection.
